a silence sweeping me away
from the guilty pleasures i obey,
they seem to make me fall apart.
and i've been making such big mistakes
when it comes to love, when it comes to grace,
when it comes to building a better place.
i’ve been trying just to hide the things that keep me going.
though they seem to take me, bend me then break me.
but nobody wants that to happen, nobody wants that to happen.
if i’m lost in time and space
you pull me back, i bring you praise.
you know exactly what i’ve been up to,
you know exactly what goes on.
i find it hard to believe,
that you don’t need to receive
a little thing from me, the slightest little thing.

my brain’s about to explode,
i can’t control myself
the theories, they block my feelings
i seem heartless as you leave.
but no matter the weather,
i will find you, i will guide you.
i’m sick of losing my friends
it’s hard for me to keep up
with the pace that they’re in.
so wake up,
the good times we had.
‘cause the memories i have,
they keep me wanting to go back.
i know we all have our dreams
and our goals set up to reach,
and each priority ignored
always gets me.
i think it’s to rearrange
my schedule as i notice,
i’m struggling to see you.
so sick of losing my friends
it’s hard for me to keep up
with the pace that they’re in.
so wake up,
the good times we had.
‘cause the memories i have,
they keep me wanting to go back.
you are the reason i try to stay away from school
without these friends i’d have no idea what i would do
still sick of losing my friends
it’s hard for me to keep up
with the pace that they’re in.
so wake up,
the good times we had.
‘cause the memories i have,
they keep me wanting to go back.

This Is The Season

will the grass get any greener?
the trees have been without their leaves,
for far too long.
and it’s driving me insane,
you promised that it would be summer by now.
you promised it’d be summer by now.
where have you been all this time?
i’ve been feeling down,
since you left me alone in this boring town.
so tell me now what do you want from me?
is it my worthless time or am i worthless?
worthless at all?
i’ve been waiting for the summer,
i’ve been waiting for your smile.
it’s worth a while.
but now everything has turned to gold.
and i’m still wondering if this is real,
or just another dream.
do i really see what my eyes perceive,
or am i just hallucinating?
this is the season that makes me come to life again.
this is the season that makes me.

Nevermind

last night you came
to my appartment
that smile on your face,
the person behind it,
wasn’t as beautiful as i thought i would see.
you started talking
‘bout things i did wrong
like how i cheated
guess i was wrong
but these stories were as fake as the smile on your face.
but nevermind
i’ll be just fine without you
but how could you give up so
easily on this?
after nine months
of your shaded heart.
i’ve been questioning everything
that you said i did wrong.
don’t you remember
last summer we shared
even the nights
you fell asleep on my shoulder
thinking about everything that we could become
it’s all the same,
it’s all the same old story
but who’s to blame now?
who’s to blame now?
how could you give up so easily on this?

running around in circles
hoping to find something new to discover,
something yet undefined.
i’m so fed up with all these boring people
just give me a chance to live the life that i would love to.
but nobody dares to.
yeah, nobody wants to.
but i do, i guess that i’ll just walk away.
give me a chance, and i will leave right away.
give me a break, and i’ll change my name.
i hope that someday i will be able to say:
‘sorry but i have to catch this train.’
my heartbeat rushes, my body awake.
the feeling that moment i never replace.
but suddenly my hands are shaking, i can’t think of anything else.
but the fact that i’m leaving this old town.
